Frequently Asked Questions

Will I receive a certificate upon completing this free course?

Yes, upon successful completion of the course and payment of the certificate fee, you will receive a completion certificate that you can add to your resume.

Is this course free?

Yes, you may enroll in the course and access the course content for free. However, if you wish to obtain a certificate upon completion, a non-refundable fee is applicable.

What are the prerequisites required to learn Machine Learning Algorithms?

Basic computer literacy, Math would be an added advantage; some basic understanding of how to code in Python can ​speed up learning Machine Learning Algorithms. 

 

How long does it take to complete learning basic algorithms for Machine Learning?

It takes about 1 and a half hours to complete the course. 

 

What are Machine Learning Algorithms?

With Machine Learning algorithms, software programs can predict outcomes more accurately without having to be explicitly instructed. They use these algorithms to forecast new output values by feeding historical data.

 

Why is Machine Learning important?

Machine Learning is significant because it uses various algorithms to help companies build new goods by providing insights into consumer behavior trends and operational business patterns. Machine learning is a key component of the operations of many of the world's most successful businesses today, like Facebook, Google, and Uber. For numerous businesses, machine learning has significantly increased their competitive edge.

 

Why is Machine Learning popular?

Machine learning is one of the most important technologies today. Since it is used in practically every field, it is widely used by professionals, academics, and students. You probably already know how effective and potent a well-trained machine-learning model is in solving issues. This is possible since the algorithms are fed with data, and the result is a model. Since this is a fundamental idea, everyone in the class must fully grasp the algorithms.

 

How to choose a suitable Machine Learning model?

If not done carefully, selecting the best machine learning model to address a problem can take a lot of time. The basic guide to choosing a suitable model:
Step 1: Align the issue with potential data sources that should be considered for the solution. Data scientists and skilled professionals with in-depth knowledge of the issue are needed for assistance with this phase.
Step 2: Gather information, format it, and, if necessary, label it. With assistance from data wranglers, data scientists often take the lead in this step.
Step 3: Select the algorithm(s) to employ, then test them to see how they perform. Data scientists typically handle this stage.
Step 4: Once outputs are accurate enough, they can be further fine-tuned. Data scientists often complete this step with input from subject matter experts who thoroughly understand the issue.
Will I get a certificate after completing this course?
Answer: Yes, you will get a course completion certificate after qualifying in the quiz. 
 

What knowledge and skills will I gain upon algorithms for Machine Learning course?
